Reflections on the books, poems, short stories, cereal boxes and small print I'm currently reading AND the films I'm getting to see upon occasion. . . .

Postcards from Connecticut

519. "North of Silver Hill in Connecticut, the Appalachina Trail wanders through woods still growing up from 19th century overtimbering"

Card sent from TEXAS

Howdy from Texas. I picked up this card on our trip last fall - we enjoyed it very much. We plan to visit Maine and see some of the islands - any suggestions? Figured we need to hire a bout and driver for part of it. Enjoy travel - we do and hope to do even more. Keys in Florida are next.

About Me

I'm a just-retired fourth grade classroom teacher, I've taught fifth grade, middle school literature, and college-level children's literature. Now I work as an assistant in the Youth Services department of a big public library....heaven! Originally from New England, I spent the last 14 years in the glorious sunshine of Tucson, Arizona, and have recently moved to south central Pennsylvania - a new adventure! I adore my kids, my grandkids (I got married at "age 9"), my students, books and reading, quilts and quilting, yarn and knitting, papercrafts and altering books, genealogy, letterboxing, - and hitting the road to adventure far and wide. There are only two states that I've not yet visited, but I'm determined to get to all of them, even if I have to row.... Next goal? Foreign countries? US capitals or major cities?
